    What blogs do you read to stay updated

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:14 AM PDT

    I have this very little list of blogs (most personal) I read to stay updated in web development and stuff like that. I'm looking to grow the list.

    What blogs do you read to stay updated?

    C#/.NET gaining in popularity?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 07:07 AM PDT

    Wrapped up a job search this month and noticed a lot of the bigger companies used this pair as a back end. Smaller firms were more mixed between Node/Express and Ruby/Rails. Even a couple Django back ends.

    Anyone have insight into this? C#/.NET back end with an SPA front end was not something I've heard much about. I guess bigger companies still like the MS stack?

    How Do I Design this Schema?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:58 PM PDT

    I'd like to make a simple application that lets roommates share data about their living situation. Some of the methods would be posting lists of grocery items the house needs, utility bills and their due dates, and times people would like to reserve the common areas, etc.

    I'm just starting to lay the ground work and I'm trying to conceptualize the best way to architect the Home/User/Room relationships.

    I'm using a stack of NodeJs, Express, MySql (Sequelize), and (probably) React.

    I am pretty new to web development, and completely self taught (except for a front end bootcamp) so I was hoping to get some expert opinions what you would - and, if possible, some guidance on how to wire it up in Sequelize (their docs kind of suck).

    Diagram

    Here are what seem to be my two best options (bold items would represent a possible SQL table):

    Each Home object has an Occupants JSON object which is populated with Users from the Users table.

    Or

    I create a Room object which defines the relationship between a Home and an Occupant (aka User).

    I'm not sure what direction to go in.

    How to implement microservices with Node.js and Express?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 05:45 AM PDT

    I've been researching microservices recently and I want to use it for a project I'm working on.

    My only issue is figuring out how to actually implement them. Currently I think that I should make different Express applications for each microservice. For example, I'll make an express app for a messaging API and then another for a cart API. I assume this is the approach since it isolates the microservices but there's not a lot of information out there IMO to verify this.

    I'm also wondering how would I get the frontend to communicate these services since they are isolated. Maybe I could open them on different ports and then call a route I would need?

    If it helps, my stack is MERN.

    What if I can't completely finish the take home coding test after an interview?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:42 AM PDT

    I got an opportunity to get an interview for a junior developer position and they sent me a coding test. There's a time limit they recommened spending on the task. I had a look over it and I'm not sure if I'll be able to completely finish the task within the recommended time, or even at all. I understand that if they don't accept me, my skills are not adequate enough for their needs.

    I'm going to do as much as i can but I'm also wondering, has anyone got a junior job even though you didn't finish the coding test? If you did, what were some things you think you did that helped you land that junior developer position?

    Consuming an API 10 times

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:43 PM PDT

    Trying to consume an API multiple times based on my requirement

    For Example: Fetching my favorite 10 twitter handle info. And each of 10 Api calls which can be independent of each other. Their results may be collated once collected.

    If I may call it a composition pattern

    What I have observed is each individual call response time is 4ms, this metric is for some other public API

    Afraid if 10 calls would take 40ms, correct me here if am wrong.

    What's the recommendation to get a decent response time after doing 10 calls in one go. How to tackle a scenario like this

    I made my first website using CSS and HTML and I don’t understand how to upload content

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:37 PM PDT

    So basically, I'm extremely knew to this. I was able to smash enough buttons on my keyboard to get a server running on my computer and a very basic blogging website that I want to continue learning and using for myself. But I just don't understand how you're supposed to upload new blog articles without editing the HTML (e.g. adding new <p>)

    I don't want to keep going into the code to add content. I'm sure there's a way to have like an admin section of the website where you can simply upload content as an article and never have to see the code…right?

    This is such a dumb question but I've tried searching on google and I just can't seem to ask the right questions.

    How do I upload articles to my hand-made website without going through the code, I just want to upload directly from the website and have it save to my server.

    Looking for a very light CMS to manage our software documentation site

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:25 PM PDT

    As of now, I'm hosting the site on Github pages and manually do all the coding.
    I'm the sole contributor to the documentation site, which works for this scenario, but I'd like to give access to a few more people to be able to easily edit the entries, add examples etc.
    I'm looking for a very light CMS to do the job, as I don't have time to learn something as complex as Drupal. I'm familiar with nodejs, my knowledge of php is very basic at best. Would something like nextjs with netlify work?
    This is the current website I've got running https://christinna9031.github.io/LBDocumentation/ just to give you an idea of what I'm looking for. I'd like for our tech support team to be easily able to edit the commands section and have it all dynamically generated, instead of having to manually write code for each command.
    Thanks in advance!

    Add Weather to website

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:25 PM PDT

    In the past we have used darksky.net to add a so called weather widget to web pages. It looks like darksky.net is going away at the end of the year.

    Does anyone know of any other good looking free weather services to imbed into a webpage?

    Or do I need to take the effort to try and build my own?

    Any advise would be appreciated.

    Trying to find a specific article again on bad 404s

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 10:37 AM PDT

    I'm trying to find a article again that I read within the last year by a former web developer on a large newspaper site talking about what is wrong with many 404 pages - how it doesn't give users the necessary information to be able to resolve the error.

    I'm not sure but the newspaper may have been the guardian. They specifically talked about how another designer created a useful 404 page design which was vetoed by new management in favor of 404 page that was just a baseball reference (A picture that I think was a jab at a specific local player), and how it not only was not useful, but also alienated readers that didn't get the reference. They also touched on how a website redesign was pushed through that frustrated many readers that had become used to the previous layout, and how many permalinks broke with the redesign which made seeing the 404 page quite common and since it made no effort to help readers locate the original article they were looking for was double frustrating.

    Trying to search for this has been rather difficult, as any mention of "404 web design" just fills results with "39.5 awesome 404 page designs you MUST SEE NOW" articles, and any mention of baseball also completely focuses on that.

    Does anyone happen to recall the post I am referring to?

    Want to develop a full stack project but don't know where to get started

    Posted: 28 Apr 2021 08:27 PM PDT

    I am currently looking forward to develop a Full Stack Website and host it online. This website will be a project I would like to add in my portfolio.

    I know HTML, CSS and JavaScript Intermediate level but don't know any frameworks. I can design a database professionally in MySQL. I am good at Python and Java languages as well.

    I am aware of heroku, but I don't have money to pay them for MySQL database so I am obliged to use Postgres database available in free tier. For the Frontend, I would like to use Django or React(whichever I will choose, I will learn it on the go). I don't have time to learn first and then go for project since I will be working full time in about a month.

    I am confused and this is overwhelming, can anyone help me put this all together and point me in right direction?

    Quetion about domain names

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 02:09 PM PDT

    I apologize if this isn't the proper sub to ask a question like this, but I thought it would be a good place to get some insight into something I don't know a lot about. I am a small business owner, and I sell products I have designed in an online store. Currently I use bigcartel for my online store, so (Name).bigcartel.com is my store link. I would like to have my own domain though, and (Name).com is taken but I can't get the owner to respond to me.

    I have some other options that are available, like .co, .net, .shop, etc, but I saw (name).buzz and I thought that could potentially be cute considering my brand is bee themed and "Bee" is in my store name. Are there any downsides to choosing a .buzz domain for an online store? I'm not sure if it matters or effects anything, so before I bought the domain I just wanted to double check if there was anything I should consider before going with .buzz instead of something more common/traditional.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Best Practices for Gaining Access to Existing Domain for a Client

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 10:15 AM PDT

    I just landed my first client! They want me to upgrade their current site to make it more modern and responsive. Once I am finished with my work, I plan on setting them up with hosting on Netlify, meaning I will need to set the domain to lead to the new setup. Will I run into issues if I reach out to the people who currently run their hosting and ask them to transfer the domain?

    Broken Links

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:33 PM PDT

    I recently started as a Web/Graphic Designer / Marketing catch-all employee for my company and it's my first time preforming this kind of function professionally. I'm doing well generally but I accidentally keep breaking links (twice now). Our websites are hosts several places but it happened once through our Wordpress site (Enfold Theme) and once through our FTP application (Fetch Softworks).

    Are there any industry best practices I might not be aware of that could help me prevent this problem in the future? I never changed any links intentionally; both instances happened when I uploaded new files.

    Thank you ahead of time for any help you can provide.

    What is the equivalent of GraphQL in WordPress and Drupal world?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:17 PM PDT

    Hello,

    First of all, sorry if I am butchering terminology. I'm trying to find the origins of the syntax that makes up GraphQL and what the equivalent is in the WordPress and Drupal word.

    I've been diving into Gatsby lately and will be looking into React soon, but the tutorial I am taking is explaining things about GraphQL.

    Thanks!

    Which technologies would you need to build the following idea?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2021 09:21 AM PDT

    The website would use the book quotes api. (it has a large collection of quotes from various books)

    It will ask users to choose the books they have read and then send them that book's famous quotes via email.

    I am familiar with Python, Html and CSS.

    Can someone please tell me which technologies I will have to learn and why?

    Also how do you like the idea?
